Free Curator Lunchtime Talk: Hampstead Vanished and Imagined ✨

Join Curator Amy Miller for a free talk exploring our 2026 exhibition showcasing Burgh House’s permanent collections. We will look at the story of Hampstead over time: of landscapes and buildings altered or no longer present. Whilst Hampstead expanded with the growth of the railways, the damage of the Second World War (1939-1945) irrevocably altered streets and local landmarks. We will consider how these changes transformed Hampstead.

🎟️ Free, but booking is necessary.

Thank you to The Guardian for this review of our new Constable in Hampstead exhibition! ⭐⭐⭐⭐

"This small show at Hampstead’s Burgh House offers something like an olive branch to Constable haters. The main works on display are three mezzotint prints done with such delicacy that the black ink becomes translucent in sections where it is used to depict clouds, and an oil study for his painting Hampstead Heath With a Rainbow."

The exhibition explores John Constable's deep connection to Hampstead, where he created some of his most celebrated works and found inspiration in the landscape around him.

Visit Burgh House to experience the exhibition for yourself!

🕰️ Wednesday-Friday* & Sunday, 10am-4pm (*occasional early closures on Fridays - please see website for details). On until Sunday 20 September.
🎟️ Free entry!

Please note our amended opening times today. We look forward to welcoming you at Burgh House! ✨
